[V117collector]

The easiest way to finding out if using a “card doctor” is ethical or not is to ask board members if they’ve ever paid for an “alteration”. If there's no real replies to this simply question, we have an answer, not ethical (if not disclosing).


Obviously there are degrees when discussing alterations and/or repairs. The question should be which procedure/s would be consider by most collectors an ethical improvement?


eg: soaking cards for paper removal (distilled water)
